The blade shape of the 2 Piece Stingray Hybrid Carbon Shaft Paddle is Aqua-Bound's most popular, allowing for responsive paddling in slow-moving water and all-around efficiency. As part of Aqua-Bound's touring lineup, the Stingray Hybrid is lightweight, reducing fatigue and letting you paddle mile after mile for all-day paddles or multi-day trips. As part of Aqua-Bound's Hybrid series, though, this versatile kayak paddle is fiberglass-reinforced to be a little bit tougher than Aqua-Bound's super-lightweight pure carbon touring paddles. This is ideal for kayakers whose adventures take them into rocky or variable waters where the possibility of breaking a paddle is real but is simply not an option. The blade itself is made of Aqua-Bound's exclusive fiberglass-reinforced nylon resin, which is lighter and stronger than previous generation resins.
